Idle Tuesday
Robert isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Colorado.
Analisi
Robert will have to wait a bit longer before making his Orioles debut after being claimed off waivers from the Mets on Monday. Dylan Beavers, Colton Cowser and Leody Taveras will form Baltimore's outfield trio while Robert sits.

Scooped up by O's
The Orioles claimed Robert off waivers from the Mets on Monday, Chelsea Janes of SNY.tv reports.
Analisi
Baltimore will assume the nearly $5 million remaining on Robert's contract with the hope that he can provide a lift in the outfield over the final month of the season. That $5 million figure includes a $2 million buyout that will need to be paid out during the offseason, assuming the Orioles choose not to exercise Robert's $20 million club option for 2027. While spending extended time on the shelf due to lumbar spine disc herniation, Robert had been limited to just 58 games for the Mets in 2026, slashing .223/.303/.399 with 10 home runs, two stolen bases, 24 runs and 23 RBI.

Placed on outright waivers
The Mets placed Robert on outright waivers Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Analisi
Robert missed nearly three months this season due to a back injury, but his .720 OPS for the year is the highest mark he's recorded since 2023. He's been especially hot at the plate in August, slashing .286/.342/.557 with six homers, 11 RBI and 10 runs scored through 79 plate appearances this month. That being said, it's unlikely another team will be willing to pay him the $4.9 million he's still owed, so he figures to clear waivers and play out the rest of the season in Queens.

Resting up Saturday
Robert isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Astros.
Analisi
Robert went 0-for-4 on Friday to snap what had been a six-game hitting streak, and he'll now move to the bench to begin Saturday's contest while Brett Baty starts in left field, batting eighth.
